Performing Techniques

  • Lie down on the mat. Lift one straight leg up and bend the other and place it on a support, in our case a step.
  • Then lift your pelvis up, until a straight line is formed from the shoulder blades to the knee of the supporting leg, but don’t arch your back.
  • Then lower yourself back down.
  • Make sure that the knee does not move sideways, the movement goes in a straight line.
  • Repeat on the other side.
